I've been working on this for years now, and since I'm just about done writing it, I thought I'd start to post some of it. I found this topic a while ago: http://www.gbfans.com/community/viewtop ... =7&t=25235, and like many who responded, I wanted to make my own Ghostbusters Operations Manuel

I plan on doing two versions, one for the two movies and one for the video game.

Touche. Obviously I'm going to need an editor.

I've finally finished it!

And here's a look at it printed:

To view it all digitally I've made a PDF

Or you can print your own copy.
1. Print the cover borderless on 8.5x11 cardstock in Landscape orientation
2. Print the interior pages double-sided and borderless on 8.5x11 paper in Landscape orientation
3. Fold cover and pages then staple it all together

I've done my best to catch all the typos but please excuse me if I've missed any.
Let me know your thoughts!

This is really cool, fantastic work ! I only have one question that it doesn't answer. How does one go between the second and third floors of the fire house?

Though I'd love to do a run, my only fear would be copyright infringement hence why I made it available to all.

Good question. I based some of the layout off of GBTVG and in that there is a small ladder that leads up to the third floor. You can see that small ladder in the upper left corner entering the full kitchen.

Come to think of it someone has photocopies of the original blueprints of the LA Firehouse where all of the interior shots were filmed. I wonder how the Ghostbusters got the appliances up to the third floor? Although I have a theory why the stairs are not there, Probably were destroyed when Peck shut down the containment grid destroying the second and third floors and were not replaced in the remodel.

Though I'm not here to discuss the reboot, I am excited they have taken the science very seriously. Check out the video of "Busting Ghosts with Science". Unfortunately I'm not a particle physicist or an engineer but I hope my Operations Manual lines up with some of their thoughts.

Thanks in advance for any help ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป
Hey! Thanks so much for your interest. The Manual was updated and .pdf's of the sections are being uploaded to my Patreon for Spoon Bender and above supporters. I'm going to try and have a print/booklet version available on my Etsy later this year. Sadly, I had a lot of problems with theft so I no longer offer this for free. If someone does have an old version, please do not distribute it. Is there anything specifically you are looking for?
